+
+ * mac/tclMacInit.c:
+ * mac/tclMacTclCode.r: synced up tclInit features to unix/win:
+ implemented TclSetPreInitScript support, use of existing tclInit proc
+ if defined, check of default encoding dir if set. Changed script
+ library resource names to lowercase (i.e. same as corresponding
+ files). Used Tcl_JoinPath instead of string append. Check that system
+ encoding could be loaded before utf translating the LibraryPath.

+
+ * unix/Makefile.in: Add comments to better describe TCL_EXE and when

+ * win/Makefile.in: Add TCL_EXE variable to be used by rules like `make

+
+2001-11-24 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * win/configure: Regen.

+
+ Up-port to 8.4 of mac code changes for 8.3.3 & various new changes for
+ 8.4, some already backported to 8.3.4. [Patch 435658]
+
+ * generic/tclObj.c: added #include to fix missing prototype errors
+
+ * generic/tcl.h: MAC_TCL: addition of ConditionalMacros.h and use of
+ DLLIMPORT and DLLEXPORT like on other platforms. ( => no longer need
+ the .exp files and can remove use of #pragma export that never worked
+ well)
+ removed line continuation in #if clause as this breaks the mac
+ resource compiler (note that *.r files include tcl.h)
+
+ * mac/tclMacFile.c: fixed bug in permission checking code
+
+ * mac/tclMacLoad.c: corrected utf-8 handling, comparison of package
+ names to code fragment names changed to only match on the length of
+ package name, this allows for fragment names with version numbers
+ appended.
+
+ * mac/tclMacInt.h:
+ * generic/tclInt.h:
+ * mac/tclMacTime.c:
+ * generic/tclIOUtil.c: moved declaration of TclpGetGMTOffset()
+
+ * mac/tclMacShLib.exp:
+ * mac/tclMacOSA.exp:
+ * mac/tclMacMSLPrefix.h: removed files
+
+ * unix/Makefile.in: removed reference to .exp files
+
+ * mac/MW_TclBuildLibHeader.h:
+ * mac/MW_TclBuildLibHeader.pch:
+ * mac/MW_TclHeaderCommon.h:
+ * mac/MW_TclStaticHeader.h:
+ * mac/MW_TclStaticHeader.pch: new precompiled header files
+
+ * mac/MW_TclAppleScriptHeader.pch:
+ * mac/MW_TclHeader.pch:
+ * mac/MW_TclTestHeader.pch:
+ * mac/tclMacCommonPch.h: revised precompiled header handling: now
+ include a common header file 'MW_TclHeaderCommon.h' from all .pch
+ files, the .pch files themselves now only setup #defines (e.g.
+ BUILD_tcl, STATIC_BUILD, TCL_DEBUG, TCL_THREADS) like in makefiles on
+ other platforms.
+
+ * mac/tclMac.h:
+ * mac/tclMacPort.h:
+ * mac/tclMacInt.h: use of BUILD_tcl and TCL_STORAGE_CLASS like on other
+ platforms, standardize #include'd files to what's done on other
+ platforms, removed use of #pragma export.
+
+ * mac/tcltkMacBuildSupport.sea.hqx: new archive of mac build support
+ files & suggested build environment directory hierarchy:
+ 'Building MacTclTk' & 'CW Pro6 changes' readme's.
+ projects for MoreFiles 1.5.2 static & shared libraries.
+ project & sources for 'pseudoCarbonSupport', see below.
+ included XML versions of the projects for CW Pro5 or Pro7 users.
+
+ * mac/tclMacProjects.sea.hqx: updated mac build project files:
+ build support for CodeWarrior Pro6, UnivIntf 3.4 & shared runtime
+ libraries: the MSL libraries and MoreFiles are no longer compiled into
+ Tcl.shlb, all non-static binaries now use the Pro6 shared runtime
+ libraries and MoreFiles.shlb. These shlbs are merged into the standard
+ Wish and TclShell, but 3rd party applications linking with Tcl.shlb or
+ Tk.shlb need to setup access to them. (see the "(sh-ppc)" targets
+ for how to do this.)
+ included XML versions of the projects for CW Pro5 or Pro7 users.
+ use compat/strtod.c instead of MSL's strtod()
+ use WASTE versions of MSL for tcl test target to avoid text buffer
+ cutoff at 32k.
+ Merging the full MSL.shlb and the other shlbs into Wish & TclShell
+ makes them a bit larger than before, use unmerged binaries to avoid
+ copying the shared code with every application, e.g. when deploying
+ numerous Wish based droplets.
+ Note that using CW Pro5 to compile extensions is in principle still
+ possible, but need to link with Pro6 runtime libraries.
+ Tclapplescript now loads and runs on CFM68k.
+ Highly experimental "pseudoCarbon" support for Tcl only on OS 8/9:
+ binaries in "Build:(Carbon):" link against CarbonLib instead of
+ InterfaceLib, however the actual code has not been carbonized! i.e. it
+ will not run on OSX and may not even run properly with CarbonLib.
+ This should in principle allow you to build & test OS9 CFM Carbon
+ binaries that need to link with Tcl.shlb. On OSX you can use the
+ native Tcl.framework, but you have to build a MachO binary as there
+ is no CFM glue lib for Tcl.framework.
+ the library pseudoCarbonSupport.shlb manually loads the symbols from
+ InterfaceLib that are not in CarbonLib but are needed by the
+ uncarbonized code in Tcl.shlb and TclShell.
+
+ * generic/tclMain.c: MAC_TCL: workaround for broken/non-standard isatty
+ on MW Pro6, #include <unistd.h> instead of defining isatty
+
+ * mac/tclMacPort.h: MW Pro6 changes for MSL fcntl.h, stat.h & isatty
+
+ * mac/tclMacAppInit.c: add EXTERN to InstallConsole to enable DLL
+ export via the TCL_STORAGE_CLASS mechanism.
+
+ * mac/tclMacFCmd.c: fix for FSpDirectoryCopy API change
+
+ * mac/tclMacLibrary.c: emit compile time error when
+ TCL_REGISTER_LIBRARY and USE_TCL_STUBS are both defined at the same
+ time in an extension, this use is not currently supported and will
+ result in a crash when dynamically loading the extension.
+
+ * mac/tclMacApplication.r:
+ * mac/tclMacLibrary.r:
+ * mac/tclMacOSA.r:
+ * mac/tclMacResource.r: fixed obsolete copyrights/dates in version
+ strings; updated version strings to standard usage; added support for
+ '(Support Libraries)' subfolder for shared runtime libraries in
+ unmerged binaries; commented out demo setting of "Tcl Environment
+ Variables"; reorganized resources among these files to avoid multiple
+ copies in applications and shared libraries, the script libraries are
+ now no longer duplicated in Tclsh but are only included in the
+ resources of Tcl.shlb.
+
+ * mac/tclMacChan.c:
+ * mac/tclMacSock.c: cast for *BlockMode
+
+ * mac/tclMacUtil.c:
+ * mac/tclMacMath.h: removed obsolete hypot() definition
+

+ * generic/tclStubInit.c:
+ * mac/tclMacNotify.c:
+ * mac/tclMacOSA.c:
+ * mac/tclMacUtil.c:
+ * generic/tclThreadTest.c: renamed routines conflicting with standard
+ Apple or MoreFiles headers (at compile or link time):
+ GetGlobalMouse -> GetGlobalMouseTcl
+ FSpGetDirectoryID -> FSpGetDirectoryIDTcl
+ FSpOpenResFileCompat -> FSpOpenResFileCompatTcl
+ FSpCreateResFileCompat -> FSpCreateResFileCompatTcl
+ NewThread -> NewTestThread
+ the renamed MoreFiles *Tcl routines are just wrappers calling into the
+ MoreFiles DLL.
+
+ * mac/tclMacCommonPch.h:
+ * mac/tclMacThrd.c:
+ * mac/tclMacPanic.c: removed OLDROUTINENAMES define, renamed obsolete
+ apple API names to modern equivalents; UH3.4 support: added #include
+ <ControlDefinitions.h>, updated New*Proc() calls to New*UPP().
+
+ * mac/tclMacUnix.c: added missing (Tcl_Obj ***) cast to
+ Tcl_ListObjGetElements call
+
+ * mac/tclMacAlloc.c: modernized TclpSysAlloc() to use temporary memory
+ instead of system heap memory when available (MacOS >= 7.5 and
+ possibly earlier, use of system heap has been discouraged for a long
+ time and has many disadvantages, e.g. memory isn't paged out, and
+ errors can very easily bring the system down); fixed crashing bug in
+ TclpSysRealloc() and CleanUpExitProc() where memory was being accessed
+ after having been deallocated; fixed memory leak in (de)allocation
+ code (for every block ever allocated with TclpSysAlloc, a Ptr was
+ leaked), if temporary memory is available, don't track allocated
+ memory, instead use RecoverHandle() to get Handle from Ptr, otherwise
+ use doubly linked list to correctly track memory and free all
+ allocated memory; added new option for ConfigureMemory:
+ MEMORY_DONT_USE_TEMPMEM, disables use of temporary memory even when it
+ would be available, only necessary when writing e.g. a driver (using
+ tcl??); increased fraction of application heap reserved for OS
+ routines to 512K
+
+ * compat/strftime.c:
+ * mac/tclMacTime.c:
+ * mac/tclMacPort.h:
+ * generic/tclInt.decls:
+ * generic/tclIntPlatDecls.h:
+ * generic/tclStubInit.c: timezone support for mac via TclpGetTZName()
+ like on windows, using an inverse timezone table adapted from
+ tclDate.c to map gmtoffset in seconds gotten from the MacOS APIs to a
+ timezone string, as there is no good way to get this info from MacOS.
+ I had to make up some unusual timezones and arbitrarily decide on the
+ most standard of the multiple choices available for every timezone.
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: workaround for a MSL bug/misfeature: for very
+ small floats, MSL can return errno ERANGE but a non-zero value (<
+ LDBL_MIN however)
+
+ * mac/tclMacAppInit.c: support for WASTE text library using temporary
+ memory, setting has no effect if WASTE is not used.
+
+ * mac/tclMacPanic.c: removed duplicate code from generic/tclPanic.c
+ and added that file to projects instead.
+
+ * tests/all.tcl: set tcltest::singleProcess 1 as multiple processes
+ are not available on the mac.
+
+ * tests/cmdAH.test: access time not available on the mac, skip the
+ atime touch test
+
+ * tests/appendComp.test:

+ * tests/compile.test:
+ * tests/exec.test:

+ The final objective of this sequence of moves is to provide a clean,

+ nothing...
+
+ * generic/tclVar.c (Tcl_TraceVar2, Tcl_UntraceVar2): Added missing

+ * doc/TraceVar.3: Added documentation for change due to TIP#68.

+ * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (TraceVarInfo): Removed problematic errMsg field

+ management subsystem.
+ (TclTraceCommandObjCmd, TraceCommandProc): Removed references to

+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (ReadChars): Fixed [Bug 478856] reported by Stuart

+ Due to an empty input buffer the flag CHANNEL_NEED_MORE_DATA was set
+ but never reset, causing the I/O system to wait for more data instead
+ of using a timer to synthesize fileevents and to flush the pending
+ data out of the buffers.
+
+2001-11-06 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
+
+ * win/rules.vc (new):
+ * win/makefile.vc: Complete over/under rewrite to support numerous
+ build options all from the commandline itself without needing to edit
+ the makefile. Now requires vcvars32.bat to be run prior to running
+ nmake for bootstraping the environment. Fully doc'd usage for it is in
+ makefile.vc. Commentary welcome. Sticky points left are:
+
+ 1) winhelp target shows errors in the converting script.
+ 2) .rc scripts aren't getting the right #defines to build the correct
+ "OriginalFilename" strings. (have patch, won't commit yet)
+ 3) Naming convention with suffixes describing the buildtype are 'tsdx'
+ which will need public acceptance. ie. tclsh84tsx.exe is a (t)
+ threaded shell (s) statically linked to the core and (x) uses
+ msvcrt instead of libcmt.

+ Report and patch by David N. Welton <davidw@users.sourceforge.net>.
+
+ * The changes below fix [Bug 462317] where Expect tried to read more
+ than was in the buffers and then blocked in the OS call as its pty
+ channel driver provides no blockmodeproc through which the OS could be
+ notified of blocking-behaviour. Because of this the general I/O core
+ has to take more care than usual to preserve the semantics of
+ non-blocking channels.
+
+ The problem was reported by "Kevin O'Gorman" <kevin@kosmanor.com>.
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_ReadRaw): Do not read from the driver if the
+ channel is non-blocking and the fileevent causing the read was
+ generated by a timer. We do not know if there is data available from
+ the OS. Instead of going to the OS for more and potentially blocking
+ we simply signal EWOULDBLOCK to the higher levels to cause the system
+ to wait for true fileevents.
+ (GetInput): Same as before.
+ (ChannelTimerProc): Added set and clear of CHANNEL_TIMER_FEV.
+
+ * generic/tclIO.h (CHANNEL_TIMER_FEV): New flag for channels. Is set
+ if a fileevent was generated by a timer, the channel is not blocking
+ and the driver did not provide a blockmodeproc. In that case the I/O
+ core has to be especially careful about going to the driver for more
+ data.

+2001-09-17 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
+
+ * generic/tcl.h: removed forced #define USE_TCLALLOC 1 for Windows.
+ This means the native system allocator will be used by default. This

+
+ * generic/tclInt.h:
+ * generic/tclFCmd.c:
+ * doc/FileSystem.3:
+ * generic/tclIOUtil.c: removed Tcl_FSCopyFile fallback to channel
+ copying, since the channels will not have access to interpreters and
+ the channel copying currently requires an interp. Code which required
+ cross-platform copies always has interpreters, so that solves the
+ problem. Fixes bug in TclKit.

+
+ * win/tcl.m4: Added -link50compat option so a VC6 linker makes a VC5

+2001-09-07 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * win/tclWinThrd.c (TclpThreadExit): Cast status argument to

+ prototype.
+
+2001-09-06 Andreas Kupries <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * All the changes below serve to fix bug [219148] which reports a 80x
+ performance hit for file I/O on Win* systems. On my system it was
+ closer to a 120x hit. Problem report by Uwe Traum <no email address
+ available>.
+
+ The fix goes like this: The obstacle is 'FlushFileBuffers', executed
+ whenever Tcl writes data to the OS, as Tcl has to wait for the disk to
+ complete I/O, and disks are slow. We remove that obstacle. This opens
+ another problem, [file size] reports back wrong numbers. So for [file
+ size] we add the call back in. As optimization we keep track of the
+ channels which were written to and flush only these.
+
+ * win/tclWinFile.c (TclpObjStat): Added a call to
+ 'TclWinFlushDirtyChannels'. This ensures that [file size] and related
+ commands report the correct size of a file even if Tcl has recently
+ written to it. Unixoid OS's always report the correct size even for
+ files with pending data, but Win* syssystem don't. They only report
+ what is actually on disk.
+
+ * win/tclWinInt.h: Added declaration of 'TclWinFlushDirtyChannels',
+ making it available to other parts of the tcl core.
+
+ * win/tclWinChan.c (TclWinFlushDirtyChannels): New, internal,
+ procedure. Goes through the list of open file channels and forces the
+ OS to flush its file buffers for all which were written to since the
+ last call of this function. This is an expensive operation as Tcl has
+ to wait for the OS to complete actual writes to the disk.
+
+ (FileInfo): Added dirty flag required by the procedure above.
+
+ (FileOutputProc): Removed flushing of file buffers, setting the dirty
+ flag instead. This means that the previously incurred delays do not
+ happen anymore.
+
+ (TclWinOpenFileChannel): Added initialization of 'dirty' flag.
+
+2001-09-06 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
+
+ * doc/http.n: noted -binary, charset and coding state keys.
+ * tests/http.test:
+ * library/http/pkgIndex.tcl:
+ * library/http/http.tcl (geturl): correctly get charset parameter
+ and convert text according to specified encoding (if known). RFC
+ iso8859-1 is used by default. Also recognize Content-encoding to see
+ if we should do binary translation. Added a CYA -binary switch for the
+ cases that were missed. [Bugs 219211, 219399]
+
+ * tests/ioUtil.test: changed to make better use of constraints and
+ remove knownBug constraints that weren't valid.

+
+ * tests/unixInit.test (unixInit-3.2): Updated test to support newer

+
+2001-09-06 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclTest.c: tests of old-fs hooks no longer cause problems in
+ threaded builds. Also removed unused unload proc.
+ * generic/tcl.decls:
+ * generic/tclIOUtilc: added Tcl_FSMountsChanged so that a vfs can
+ inform the filesystem that the filesystem epoch must be changed (since
+ cached filesystems may now be incorrect). Fixes problem running tclvfs
+ extension.
+ * library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl: if tests aren't in a native filesystem,
+ then don't use pipes to run them. [Bug 458741]
+
+2001-09-06 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+ * generic/tcl.decls (479 generic):
+ * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_Seek,Tcl_Tell,Tcl_OutputBuffered): Added public

+ Tcl_InputBuffered() too. [TIP#49, Rolf Schroedter]
+
+2001-09-05 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
+
+ * generic/tclPlatDecls.h: Another small trim finalizing Borland
+ support.
+
+ * win/tclWinPipe.c:
+ * win/tclWinPort.h: More Borland compatibility fixes. Changed EDQUOT
+ #define from 49 to 69. Borland had a clash as it was already using
+ this number. Upon advice from Helmut Giese, EDQUOT has been found in
+ other header files #defined as 69. [Patch 436116]
+
+ * win/.cvsignore: A few more glob patterns added.
+
+ * win/makefile.bc (new): Borland lives once more! rejoice..

+ on Windows at all.
+
+2001-09-04 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
+
+ * win/tclWinThrd.c: Revisited _beginthreadex() stuff. Instead of
+ assuming a c-runtime implimentation of _beginthreadex normal, I
+ reversed the logic to not assume, and use when is by explicitly
+ needing to add runtimes that support it such as Borland.
+
+ * generic/tcl.h:
+ * generic/tclPlatDecls.h: Borland compatibility change so ClientData
+ was properly typed as a void* and TCHAR would not be defined twice.
+
+ * generic/tcl.h: Removed a small mistake from before. Changes to the
+ EXTERN macro for proper Borland compatibility will have to see a TIP.
+ What's this with the MS compiler:
+
+ __declspec(dllexport) int func (int a, int b);
+
+ will have to be this with Borland:
+
+ int __cdecl __export func (int a, int b);
+
+ The order of the attribute needs to be after the return type.
+
+2001-09-04 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>

+
+2001-09-04 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclProc.c:

+
+2001-09-04 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ Minor bug fixes in filesystem, plus small vfs changes as a result of
+ enabling the test filesystem to work properly.
+ * tests/fileName.test: ensure new test cleans up after itself
+ * doc/filename.n:
+ * generic/tclFileName.c: improved Mac path handling and document why
+ [Bug 421842] on Windows handling of UNC paths is not valid.
+ Documentation and code now much clearer on what is and is not a UNC
+ path.
+ * doc/FileSystem.3:
+ * unix/tclUnixPipe.c:
+ * generic/tclFCmd.c:
+ * generic/tclIOUtil.c: fixed error message, fixed [Bug 453512] about
+ dangerous use of tmpnam, replaced with mkstemp. Documented all the

+ * generic/tclTest.c: made test vfs fully functional as a 'reporting
+ filesystem'.
+ * generic/tcl.stubs:
+ * generic/tcl.h:
+ * generic/tclInt.h:
+ * generic/tclIOUtil.c:
+ * doc/file.n:
+ * various platform-specific 'TclpLoadFile': fixed comments about
+ unload behaviour, and completed objectification of loading. Required
+ change to Tcl_Filesystem lookup table, so incompatible with 8.4a3, but
+ not older versions of Tcl. The change also allows 'link' and
+ 'reporting' filesystems to function correctly when loading files.
+ Implementation of 'file delete -force' copes with case where cwd is
+ inside the directory. Moved overlooked Tcl_FSGetPathType from internal
+ to external API. Made sure filesystems which are registered and then
+ unregistered are only freed when all references to them are gone.
+ Documented changes.
+ * unix/tclUnixFCmd.c: when deleting directories recursively, make sure
+ permissions are ok. Together with the above, this fixes [Bug 219139]
+ * tests/winFCmd.test: differentiated test results for win2k versus
+ not. This fixes [Bug: 219239]
+ * tests/fCmd.test: added tests for 'file delete -force' where the cwd
+ is inside, and when permissions are inadequate.
+
+2001-09-04 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclCompile.c: fixed incorrect operands for INST_LIST [Bug

+
+2001-09-03 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): fixed missing comma in
+ debug macro.
+
+2001-09-03 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+ * doc/ExprLongObj.3: Fixed error in documentation of argument type to
+ Tcl_ExprObj [Bug 457435]
+
+2001-09-02 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
+
+ * win/tclWinThrd.c: Portability fix for Cygwin who's c-runtime,
+ not surprisingly, doesn't have the MSVCRT specific _beginthreadex /
+ _endthreadex pair. This might have to be revisited for proper Borland,
+ lcc32, Watcom and other support as well. [Patch 444255]
+
+ * win/tclWinThrd.c: Moved FinalizeConditionEvent() proto to within
+ the main #ifdef TCL_THREADS block to avoid mingw warning about it
+ being there but unused.
+
+ * win/makefile.vc: Added -Zl (zee el) to tclStubLib.c compile line to
+ make sure the tclstub84.lib static library is built without requiring
+ a specific C-runtime library at link-time for the end-use developer.
+ It has been noted on c.l.t that this trips many first time users
+ trying to make extensions. [Patch 403533]
+
+2001-08-31 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
+
+ * generic/tclInt.h: added TclCompileListCmd header
+ * generic/tclBasic.c: added TclCompileListCmd compile proc
+ * generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileListCmd): function to compile the
+ 'list' command at parse time.
+ * generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): definition of INST_LIST
+ bytecode.
+
+ * doc/StringObj.3: added words of warning to use Tcl_ResetResult with
+ the Tcl_Append* functions.
+
+ * tests/compile.test: added compile-11.* interp result checks
+ * generic/tclUtil.c (TclGetIntForIndex): added Tcl_ResetResult before
+ Tcl_AppendStringsToObj to prevent shared object crash when called from
+ bcc instruction. The Tcl_Append* calls that append to the result
+ object that are invoked by bcc insts must remember to call
+ Tcl_ResetResult because the bcc doesn't do this for us. [Bug 456892]
+
+2001-08-30 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
+
+ * generic/tclIndexObj.c: fixed some casting problems that upset Crays.
+ [Bug 419528] (andreasen)
+
+2001-08-30 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tcl.h: Silence warning from Sun compiler. [Bug 454374]
+
+2001-08-30 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: allow cached fully-qualified command names to
+ be usable from different namespaces within the same interpreter
+ without forcing a new lookup. This speeds up scripts that pass command
+ names in variables ("this" in some OO packages). [Patch 456668]
+
+2001-08-30 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ Further fs updates. After examining the most common Tcl extensions
+ (TclX, BLT, Tk, TclPro, Mktclapp), it has been determined that only
+ TclpGetCwd and the Access/Stat/Open insert/delete hooks of the
+ internal fs functions are ever used. The remaining functions from
+ Tcl's internal interfaces have therefore been removed, since Tcl now
+ exports a more suitable public API (Tcl_FS...)
+
+ * generic/tclInt.stubs:
+ * generic/tclInt.h: updated for removed internal functions. Some new
+ internal functions have been put in tclInt.h (and not exported in the
+ stub table because good public equivalents exist).
+ * generic/tclTest.c: some test functions used the internal private
+ APIs. These tests have been retained, but modified to use public APIs.
+ Also objectified the internal filesystem tests.
+ * win/tclWinFile.c: removed TclpStat, TclpAccess and refactored code
+ to use NativeAccess, NativeStat. This should speed up stat, access and
+ glob commands.
+ * win/tclWinFCmd.c: removed all TclpCopy/Rename/Delete File/Directory
+ string-based procedures which aren't used any more. Improved
+ efficiency of some other procedures. Ensure that filename conversions
+ with a NULL interp do not crash Tcl.
+ * mac/tclMacFCmd.c: wrapped long lines and cleaned up
+ TclpObjNormalizePath, removed all TclpCopy/Rename/Delete
+ File/Directory string-based procedures which aren't used any more.
+ * mac/tclMacFile.c: removed obsolete TclpStat, TclpAccess, TclpChdir,
+ etc.
+ * unix/tclUnixFCmd.c: removed use of TclpAccess, removed all
+ TclpCopy/Rename/Delete File/Directory string-based procedures which
+ aren't used any more.
+ * unix/tclUnixFile.c: removed obsolete TclpStat, TclpAccess,
+ TclpChdir, etc.
+ * tcl(Unix|Mac|Win)Chan.c: objectified TclpOpenFileChannel.
+ * various 'load' implementations all objectified.
+ * generic/tclFileName.c: removed redundant code.
+ * generic/tclIOUtil.c: removed TclStat, TclAccess, TclpListVolumes.
+ Fix to MatchInDirectory at the root of a volume. Also improved some
+ documentation, and improved default path joining behaviour for virtual
+ filesystems, especially regarding '~'.
+ * tests/fileName.test: added tests to check for bugs fixed above.
+ * doc/FileName.3: improved documentation
+
+2001-08-30 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
+
+ * generic/tclAsync.c:
+ * generic/tclEvent.c:
+ * generic/tclInt.h: Improper cleanup of asyncMutex in tclAsync.c
+ repaired. TclFinalizeSynchronization() was trying to remove a
+ registered mutex that was dumped earlier when the TSD it was stored in
+ was cleared. This was only surfacing on *nix. Windows was being masked
+ by mutexes not actually being returned to the system! That was
+ repaired in a previous patch. Needed to add a private
+ TclFinalizeAsync() to tclAsync.c and called from Tcl_FinalizeThread().
+ Pheww.. Is this done yet? [Bug 414419] requested by Rob Ratcliff
+ <rrr6399@futuretek.com>

+ * tests/unixInit.test (unixInit-2.{1,9}):
+ * unix/tclUnixInit.c (TclpInitLibraryPath):

+ 455642]
+
+2001-08-24 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
+
+ * tests/stringComp.test: added string-1.3
+ * generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileStringCmd): changed to return
+ TCL_OUT_LINE_COMPILE instead of TCL_ERROR when compiling and an
+ unknown string method is called. This is necessary as the string
+ command may be never called, or not until 'string' is redefined.
+
+2001-08-24 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>

+
+2001-08-23 Andreas Kupries <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * win/tclWinPipe.c (BuildCommandLine): Fixed [Bug 432499]. Part of the
+ code used the non-absolute path to the executable to determine
+ quoting. This failed if the absolute path contained spaces, but the
+ application name itself not. This bug caused no trouble on Win NT 5,
+ but does for other variants in the Win* family. Report and fix due to
+ Ken Poole <kenpoole@users.sourceforge.net>.
+
+2001-08-23 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
+

+ * generic/tclFileName.c: corrected minor compiler warnings.
+
+2001-08-23 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ Variety of small filesystem and vfs issues fixed or improved. The new
+ fs code allows many new opportunities for efficiency improvements
+ through the objectified API. The main changes integrated here are such
+ efficiency improvements. Some limitations of the original
+ implementation have also now been lifted. Meanwhile a variety of fs
+ bugs (some old, some new) have also been fixed.
+
+ * generic/tclFileName.c: Made Tcl_FSSplitPath more efficient, and
+ removed some static string-based procedures which are no longer used.
+ Much more objectification. Tcl_FSJoinPath is now very efficient and
+ more aware of virtual filesystems. Clarified where the Mac-specific
+ code attempts to interpret Unix-style paths. Modified TclDoGlob to use
+ lstat not access to fix [Bug 434876] (L. Virden)
+
+ * tcl(Win|Unix|Mac)FCmd.c:
+ * tcl(Win|Unix|Mac)File.c: replaced TclpListVolumes with
+ TclpObjListVolumes with different signature, updated code due to more
+ efficient signature of Tcl_FSGetTranslatedPath. Used cached native
+ paths where possible to improve efficiency -- this was completed on
+ MacOS, but on Unix and Win the traversal functions make the task much
+ more complex, so there are still some improvements possible there.
+ Removed unused TclpNormalizePath which had been left in tclWinFCmd.c.
+ Objectified all 'file attributes' functions. Fixed the new [Bug
+ 451571, Bruce Stephens] which is most obvious on Unix, but could occur
+ on MacOS or Windows. This bug actually existed in Tcl 8.3.x but was
+ only made obvious by the recent filesystem overhaul when the code was
+ exercised more heavily.
+ * tests/fileName.test: Three new tests to exercise the above bug, and
+ make sure it is fixed correctly.
+ * unix/tclUnixFile.c: avoid panic in glob when a link doesn't point
+ anywhere. It would probably be good to define exactly what Tcl should
+ do in circumstances like these, and make sure mac/win/unix all behave
+ accordingly. [Bug 417111] (Hemang Lavana). Also fixed
+ misleading/obsolete comment in the code.
+ * generic/tcl.stubs: changed signature of Tcl_FSGetTranslatedPath and
+ added Tcl_FSGetTranslatedStringPath.
+ These changes allow further optimisations in the FS code.
+ * generic/tcl.h: changed signature of Tcl_FSListVolumes so that it
+ doesn't require a Tcl interpreter plus result. Renamed Tcl_FSReadLink
+ to Tcl_FSLink with additional argument so we can support making links
+ in the future. [Patch: 450340]
+ * generic/tclInt.h: added declaration for TclpObjListVolumes.
+ Objectified internal call signatures for 'file attributes' functions,
+ and added an internal objectified get path type function.
+ * generic/tclIOUtil.c: added the moved function TclpListVolumes which
+ calls platform specific code (needed for backwards compatibility), and
+ improved efficiency of parts of the FS (particularly file
+ normalization). Much less copying and memory allocation is required
+ now. added new GetPathType so that changes in 'file volumes' can
+ actually affect files' types, and objectified more code. Made current
+ code work with test suite artificially changing current platform.
+ Added 'static' keywords where required.
+ * generic/tclIO.c:
+ * generic/tclTest.c: Added 'static' keywords, fixing [Bug 453872] (Bob
+ Techentin)
+ * generic/tclCmdAH.c: file command implementation updated for API
+ changes, removed unnecessary special-case SplitPath static function,
+ since it no longer helps prevent code duplication. Moved setting of
+ interpreter result to each individual location that actually required
+ it, to avoid very large code separation between reading and setting
+ the result.
+ * doc/FileSystem.3: updated documentation for the new or changed APIs,
+ and clarified some issues.
+ * doc/SplitPath.3: added pointer to newer APIs in FileSystem.3
+ * doc/filename.n: clarified current implementation of tilde support on
+ Mac/Win. [Bug 453514] (Sergey Kuzmin)
+ * doc/glob.n: improved documentation for '-directory' and '-path'
+ options.
+
+ There are now many private, obsolete, platform-specific 'Tclp'
+ string-based filesystem APIs which could be removed. We should check
+ whether any of these are used by extensions and, at least in Tcl 9,
+ remove them.
+
+ The above changes signify a ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*** with
+ 8.4a3, since signatures of two functions in the new API have changed,
+ but not with older versions of Tcl.
+
+2001-08-23 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+ * generic/tclBinary.c (FormatNumber): Extract a long from the object

+ * win/README.binary: updated for 8.4a3 release
+
+ * generic/tclFileName.c (Tcl_FSSplitPath): update to Tcl style guide.

+
+2001-08-03 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
+
+ * win/configure: regenerated
+ * win/tcl.m4: fixed DLLSUFFIX definition to always be ${DBGX}.dll.
+ This is necessary for TEA compliant builds that build shared against a
+ static-built Tcl.
+ * win/Makefile.in ($(TCLSH)): added $(TCL_STUB_LIB_FILE) to build
+ target, otherwise it wouldn't get generated in a static build.
+
+2001-08-06 Andreas Kupries <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclIOCmd.c (Tcl_GetsObjCmd): Applied patch from [Bug 442665]
+ to fix the bug reported by it. The function can corrupt a freed object
+ if it is called with objc == 3. This is because it retrieves resultPtr
+ and does not increment its reference count, but then calls
+ Tcl_ObjSetVar2, which causes the retrieved resultPtr object to be
+ released.
+
+2001-08-06 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+

+
+2001-07-18 Mo DeJong <mdejong@redhat.com>
+
+ * generic/tclPlatDecls.h: Define TCHAR by including windows.h instead
+ of tchar.h since Cygwin does not support the tchar.h header. Include
+ CHECK_UNICODE_CALLS logic from tclWinPort.h.
+ * win/tclWinPort.h: Remove CHECK_UNICODE_CALLS logic. Remove include

+ * win/tclWinReg.c: Remove duplicate include of windows.h.
+
+2001-07-18 Andreas Kupries <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c: Aftermath to [Bug 427196]. Squash empty buffers if
+ they are smaller than the requested buffersize, to prevent reusage of
+ old buffers and to honor changes in the requested buffersize made by
+ the user.
+
+2001-07-17 Mo DeJong <mdejong@redhat.com>
+
+ * win/tclWinFile.c (TclpReadlink): Add Cygwin specific definition for
+ the TclpReadlink function. This method implements reading of symbolic
+ links when build with Cygwin.
+
+2001-07-17 Mo DeJong <mdejong@redhat.com>
+
+ * win/tclWinPort.h: Add Cygwin specific defines for environ and
+ timezone variables.
+
+2001-07-17 Andreas Kupries <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (GetInput): Fixed [Bug 427196]. Memory was
+ overwritten because a buffer was used after a change of the requested
+ buffersize together with that requested buffersize and not its actual
+ size, which was smaller. Note that the continous reuse of the smaller
+ buffer negatively impacts performance. The system never allocates a
+ buffer with the newly requested bigger buffersize.
+
+2001-07-16 Mo DeJong <mdejong@redhat.com>
+
+ * generic/tcl.h: Define __WIN32__ when __CYGWIN__ or __MINGW32__ is
+ defined.
+ * generic/tclAlloc.c: Define caddr_t when compiling with VC++ or
+ mingw. This type is already defined when compiling with Cygwin.

+ * win/tclWinThrd.c:
+ Remove unnecessary #includes of dos.h, direct.h, and tchar.h. This
+ will help the Cygwin porting effort since these headers do not exist
+ under Cygwin.
+
+2001-07-16 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
+
+ * win/tclWinPipe.c (PipeClose2Proc): constrained the mutex lock to
+ just the TerminateThread call and waiting for termination. (jsmith)
+
+ * generic/tclCmdMZ.c: Removed extra copy of the SCAN_* macros
+ #defined in generic/tclScan.c. [Bug 441230] (porter)
+
+2001-07-12 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+ * tests/unixInit.test (unixInit-2.8): Added extra constraint,
+ notInstalledInTmp, to stop this test from damaging installations in
+ /tmp; not much fun to have to reinstall the Tcl library every time you
+ run the test suite!
+
+ * tests/subst.test (subst-10.*): Updated tests to check new behaviour
+ for 'break' in command substitutions.
+ (subst-1.2,subst-7.1): Error messages changed.
+ * doc/SubstObj.3: New file, to document Tcl_SubstObj.
+ * doc/subst.n: Improved and updated documentation for 'subst' to help
+ support the changed behaviour.
+ * generic/tcl.decls (generic-437): Declaration for Tcl_SubstObj
+ * generic/tcl.h (TCL_SUBST_*): Added flags for Tcl_SubstObj.
+ * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_SubstObj,Tcl_SubstObjCmd): Divided into two
+ parts to allow people to access the innards of 'subst' and changed the
+ behaviour when command substitutions do a 'break' to be different from
+ 'continue'. Also now works with objects, which allows for some nifty
+ optimisations with variable substitutions and a slight improvement
+ with command substitutions. [TIP#36]
+
+2001-07-10 Mo DeJong <mdejong@redhat.com>
+
+ * unix/Makefile.in: Add AR variable for use in STLIB_LD.
+ * unix/configure: Regen.
+ * unix/configure.in: Use STLIB_LD when defining MAKE_LIB and
+ MAKE_STUB_LIB. Subst RANLIB and AR.
+ * unix/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Add doc comment about STLIB_LD
+ command. Check ${AR} env var when setting STLIB_LD and delay
+ evaluation until make time.
+ * win/configure: Regen.
+ * win/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Delay evaluation of ${AR} in STLIB_LD
+ and add flags to better match the Unix implementation. Don't bother
+ defining AR when using VC++ since it is not used.
+
+2001-07-06 Mo DeJong <mdejong@redhat.com>
+
+ * win/configure: Regen.
+ * win/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Pass -e _WinMain@16 in addition to
+ the -mwindows flag to work around a problem with ld when it
+ incorrectly use main() as the executable entry point when both
+ WinMain() and main() are available.
+
+2001-07-06 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+ * tests/cmdAH.test: Added leading zero to file modes to work around
+ fault in HPUX strtol() which ignores the base parameter. [Bug 438808]
+
+2001-07-05 Mo DeJong <mdejong@redhat.com>
+
+ * win/Makefile.in: Subst DEPARG directly instead of relying on a
+ variable. This will make Cygwin builds faster since an extra exec will
+ be avoided.
+ * win/configure: Regen.
+ * win/configure.in: Subst DEPARG.
+ * win/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Move AC_MSG_CHECKING after the
+ AC_CHECK_PROG so that status messages do not get mixed together. Set
+ DEPARG based on the results of the cygpath check so that we avoid
+ using an extra exec when it is not needed. Use ac_cv_cygwin status
+ flag instead of looking at the output of gcc -v, which works in the
+ case where -mno-cygwin is set in the CFLAGS.

+
+2001-07-03 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

+
+ * generic/tclVar.c (Tcl_GetVar2Ex): added ability to recognize
+ TCL_TRACE_READS flags to cause creation of part1 in TclLookupVar to
+ make sure newly created array will get read traces triggered
+ appropriately. This is called by Tcl_ObjGetVar2, Tcl_GetVar, and
+ Tcl_GetVar2.
+ (TclSetIndexedScalar, TclSetElementOfIndexedArray): added read trace
+ triggering for lappend case.
+ (Tcl_LappendObjCmd): pass TCL_TRACE_READS to Tcl_ObjGetVar2 to trigger
+ possible read traces for new arrays.
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): added TCL_TRACE_READS
+ flag to INST_LAPPEND(_ARRAY)_STK case to trigger read traces for newly
+ created arrays. Removed unnecessary #ifdef for TCL_COMPILE_DEBUG in
+ INST_LOAD_SCALAR1 case.
+
+ * tests/append.test:
+ * tests/appendComp.test: added tests for read trace triggering for

+
+2001-07-03 Mo DeJong <mdejong@redhat.com>
+
+ * win/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Don't pass the v flag to ${AR} when

+
+2001-07-03 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * tests/unixInit.test (unixInit-2.8): Changed test back to using

+ /tmp.
+
+2001-07-03 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+ * tests/unixInit.test (unixInit-1.2): Fixed faults reported in

+
+2001-06-27 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
+
+ * generic/tclInt.h:
+ * generic/tclObj.c:

+
+ * tests/unixInit.test (unixInit-1.2,unixInit-2.8): Added test for code

+
+ * All of the changes below belong to TIP #10 [Tcl I/O Enhancement:
+ Thread-Aware Channels]. See also [Patch 403358] at SF.
+
+ * generic/tclIO.h (struct ChannelState, line 236f): Extended the
+ structure with a new field of type 'Tcl_ThreadId' to hold the id of
+ the thread currently managing all channels with this state.
+
+ Note: This structure is shared by all channels in a stack of
+ transformations.
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_CreateChannel, lines 1058-1065): Modified to
+ store the Id of the current thread in the 'ChannelState' of the new
+ channel.
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_SpliceChannel, lines 2265-2270): Modified in
+ the same manner as 'Tcl_CreateChannel' as the channel will be managed
+ by the current thread afterward.
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_GetChannelThread, lines 1478-1503):
+ * generic/tcl.decls (Tcl_GetChannelThread, lines 1504-1506): New API
+ function to retrieve the Id of the managing thread from a channel.
+ Implementation and declaration.
+
+ * generic/tclTest.c (TestChannelCmd, lines 4520-4532): Added
+ subcommand 'mthread' to query a channel about its managing thread.
+
+2001-03-29 Mo DeJong <mdejong@redhat.com>
+
+ * tests/interp.test: Print out warning when testinterpdelete command
+ is not defined. Add tests that checks to make sure a child interp
+ inherits the parent's cwd.
+
+2001-03-29 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@gimlet.activestate.com>
+
+ * doc/tcltest.n: corrected incorrect macro usage.
+
+ * doc/lsort.n: corrected unbalanced nroff macros.
+
+ * unix/tclUnixPipe.c (TclpCreateTempFile): prevent potential race
+ condition and security leak in tmp filename creation.
+ [Patch 402924] (max)
+
+ * unix/configure:
+ * unix/tcl.m4: corrected IRIX-5.x config to not use -n32.
+ [Patch 403626] (english)
+
+ * unix/tclUnixThrd.c (Tcl_ConditionWait): fixed handling of timeout
+ for threads (corrects excessive CPU usage issue for Tk on Unix in
+ threaded Tcl environment). [Bug 411603] (ruppert)
+
+2001-03-29 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+ * doc/lsort.n: Added some notes that clarify the behaviour of
+ [lsort] as well as a whole bunch of examples. [Bug 219202]
+
+2001-03-27 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@gimlet.activestate.com>
+
+ * doc/Alloc.3: corrected docs to note that Tcl_Attempt* return char
+ *'s, not ints. [Bug 411388]
+
+ * tests/regexp.test (regexp-19.1):
+ * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_RegsubObjCmd): fixed handling of nulls in
+ subspec value.
+
+2001-03-26 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclDecls.h (Tcl_InitCustomHashTable): Correction to patch
+ from 2001-01-18; tclDecls.h was not generated using 'make genstubs'.
+
+2001-03-26 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+ * win/tclWinInt.h (tclWinTCharEncoding): Removed as now a static
+ variable in win/tclWin32Dll.c instead.
+
+2001-03-23 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@activestate.com>
+
+ * generic/tclVar.c (Tcl_ArrayObjCmd): Corrected retrieval of resultPtr
+ to prevent possible corruption.
+
+ * generic/tclNamesp.c (Tcl_Import): Correctly freed a DString.
+ [Patch 403755] (lavana)
+
+2001-03-15 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+ * tests/set-old.test (set-old-7.2): Changed error behaviour of
+ [unset] to agree with documentation, so must change test as well.
+
+2001-03-14 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * library/package.tcl (pkg_mkIndex): Added patch from Vince Darley to
+ make [pkg_mkIndex -verbose] even more verbose. [Bug 219349, Patch
+ 403529]
+
+2001-03-13 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+ * doc/info.n: Improved documentation for [info hostname]. [Bug 403840]
+
+ * generic/tclVar.c (Tcl_UnsetObjCmd): Made command behave as
+ documented [issue remaining from Bug 405769]
+
+ * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd): A missing {return TCL_OK;}
+ was causing memory corruption. [Bug 408002]
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c (TclDeleteExecEnv, GrowEvaluationStack,
+ (TclExecuteByteCode): Added some casts to ClientData that are
+ apparently needed on some architectures.
+
+2001-03-12 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+ * tests/string.test: Fixed some test numberings and added a test.
+ [Patch 403229]
+
+2001-03-06 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+ * generic/tclVar.c (Tcl_UnsetObjCmd): Rewrote argument parser to avoid
+ a read off the end of the argument array that could occur when
+ executing something like [unset -nocomplain] was executed. Improved
+ the error message given when not enough arguments are given (-nocomplain
+ should obviously be *before* --, not after it) and also modified the
+ test suite to take account of that and the documentation to use the
+ same improvement. [Bug 405769]
+
+2001-03-02 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): Fixed bug that could pass
+ pointers to freed memory to command implementations, which most
+ obviously caused some weird behaviour with [info level], but could
+ have caused problems with user code and command traces too. [Bug
+ 404865, Patch 405436]
+
+2001-02-23 msofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * no changes; fixing up the missing comment in the previous one.
+ Sorry.
+
+2001-02-23 msofer <msofer@ant.utdt>
+
+ * /cvsroot/tcl/tcl/tests/execute.test: added test for evaluation of an
+ expression in a variable; evals once by compiling, second time using
+ the previous compilation
+
+2001-02-18 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
+
+ * doc/clock.n: Updated documentation to reflect the addition of
+ compat/strftime.c, including the correct formatting of ISO-8601:1988
+ fiscal week number (%V).
+
+2001-02-15 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+ * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_SplitObjCmd): Improved efficiency of
+ splitting strings into individual characters by adding hash so that
+ only one Tcl_Obj per character is created. Improves performance of
+ splitting of short strings and makes a huge difference to splitting of
+ long strings, such as is done in the mime package in tcllib. [Bug
+ 131523]
+
+2001-01-31 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * win/makefile.vc (install-libraries): Corrected misdirected install
+ directory for the msgcat 1.2 package.
+
+2001-01-30 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (CopyData): Moved code that updates the count of how
+ many bytes are left to copy. Corrects bug that when writing occurs in
+ the background, the copy loop could be escaped without updating the
+ count, causing CopyData() to try to copy more bytes than the toRead
+ value originally passed to TclCopyChannel(), leading to hangs and
+ misreporting of number of bytes copied. [Bug 118203, Patch 103432]
+
+2001-01-18 Andreas Kupries <a.kupries@westend.com>
+
+ Everything below belongs together, it fixes [Bug 123153]
+
+ * generic/tcl.h (line 342): A bit more explanation about the default
+ value for TCL_PRESERVE_BINARY_COMPATABILITY.
+
+ * generic/tcl.h (line 1208): Define the macro 'Tcl_InitHashTable' only
+ when TCL_PRESERVE_BINARY_COMPATIBILITY is not set as it kills binary
+ compatibility to 8.3 and earlier versions. This is the main part of
+ the patch/change.
+
+ * generic/tcl.decls (line 1469):
+ * generic/tclHash.c (Tcl_InitHashTable):
+ * generic/tclHash.c (Tcl_InitHashTableEx):
+ * generic/tclObj.c (Tcl_InitObjHashTable): Changed
+ 'Tcl_InitHashTableEx' to 'Tcl_InitCustomHashTable'. This change is
+ more of an estethical nature, replacing the ubiquitous 'Ex' suffix
+ with a more meaningful name. The introduced binary incompatibility is
+ deemed acceptable as it is between alpha versions. Updated callers.
+
+ * doc/Hash.3:
+ * unix/mkLinks: Changed 'Tcl_InitHashTableEx' to
+ 'Tcl_InitCustomHashTable'.
+
+2001-01-10 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+ * tests/winPipe.test (winpipe-1.20):
+ * tests/winDde.test (createChildProcess):
+ * tests/pkgMkIndex.test (pkgtest::createIndex): Removed assumption
+ that paths contain no spaces which causes problems with both [eval]
+ and [open |...] due to the well-known differences between lists and
+ strings. Fixes [Bug 119406]
+
+2001-01-04 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * tests/unixInit.test:
+ * unix/tclUnixInit.c (TclpInitLibraryPath):
+ * win/tclWinInit.c (TclpInitLibraryPath): Several entries in the
+ library path ($tcl_libPath) are determined relative to the absolute
+ path of the executable. When the executable is installed in or near
+ the root directory of the file system, relative pathnames were being
+ incorrectly generated, and in the worst case, memory access violations
+ were crashing the program. [Bug 119416, Patch 102972]
